Hello all,

I have been seriously considering playing on P1999 after discovering it today. I am a former EQ player, ive played on classic EQ on release, SoD, and the progression servers.

I have spent a few hours lurking today and searching to the best of my ability for an answer to this, but have not found any definitive answer.

So, will AAs EVER be considered? A simple maybe from a Mod would make me happy. I really dont want to spend all the time to grind to max level and find that my grinding is for no more than items at that point.


I'm really not trying to make this a debate, and i know there are other threads but I didn't see a Mod say anything regarding this.

If there is zero possibility of them ever being added to P1999 then i'm afraid this server is not for me.

I simply don't want to spend the time building up my character just to quit at max level like I do with all other MMO's...

Velious + AAs = happy me. I dont want all the other luclin crap.

I don't think anyone can speak to the staffs intent with the server after Velious has been conquered. Currently Velious is not out, nor will be out anytime soon (months not years).

AAs are definitively not slated, however it's not my server.

I think it's safe to say that they will never be on the server. The stated goal has always been to get as close to classic as possible and there is a lot of work ahead of the team to achieve it fully. Time will tell but for now, assume that AA's will never be on the server.

So, will AAs EVER be considered?

as per http://www.project1999.org/index.php?pageid=about

"Project 1999 started development in 2008, and was released in October of 2009. The mission of the project is to create the classic feeling that many had during the early days of Everquest during those time periods, starting with Classic content and releasing the other expansions and content on a similar timeline that was experienced on Live. The server will stop at Velious, at which point many options will be considered, including possible custom content that will maintain the spirit of the game, and/or an additional new server starting over at Pre-Kunark."

Ahh, well I stand corrected! Thanks Sirken. I am surprised I missed that (or forgot about it)

If they could do like 100 AA's at some time would make a lot of the Hybrid classes a bunch better. Not holding my breath on it though.

It is to early to say imo. Once vellious is out for couple years people may get bored and the population will probably drop. At that time I am sure people may consider AA's a good idea to rejuvenate the server. But all of that is so far away and it is just speculation on my side.

Velious will sustain people for like, 6 months, a year at most.

Personally would have loved to see AAs within Velious. If the staff decides that's what is to come for the server, great! If not, that's just fine too.
